¿Qué tiene de grandioso?

My dad bought it for me when I was about 14 years old, and it hasn't torn even once!

Mi padre la compró para mí cuando yo tenía aproximadamente catorce años, y no ha rasgado ni una sola vez.

My mother has bought me so many backpacks in my entire life.

Esta semana no voy a preocuparme por eso. (¿hay alguna frase más exacta?)

Now, let me just run over the course of the events, and you will contradict me if I go wrong.
